Wouldn't you need _at least_ two ( I know, _tri_angulation) sets of CI data to set a point? So the

The items could still allow multiple entries for each item. However, it would be kind of nice if the
schema/DTD provided a little guidance at least as far as ensuring enough data is present to be
processed. By grouping the types, it gives someone a starting point.
